TOWARDS GLOBAL PEACE

To patiently accept and tolerate loss is not defeatism. It requires great courage and boldness to voluntarily accept reality. It is being aware that though there has been loss, one still has other resources to rebuild one’s life. Despite a temporary setback, with patience and tolerance, one can remain balanced, pragmatic and make new life-plans. To forget what one has lost, is to be able to carry on with one’s life purpose with what one still has. It’s saving oneself from hopelessness, and with wisdom, surging ahead in life. Every evening is followed by a new morning. The world is full of potentials and possibilities. If you lose one opportunity, you can gain another. If you miss one door, another opens for you. If a certain plan fails, one can always make new plans and move on. Good news always accompanies bad news. Every accident delivers a quiet message of encouragement—not to be disheartened, instead muster courage and look for new opportunities. Nature rewards such positive responses. It tells us that we can rebuild our lives—maybe better than before; converting what seems to be our defeat into a new and brighter future. Those who do not accept loss fall prey to negative thinking and become a burden on others. On the other hand, those who respond with patience and courage can help build a new mansion on past ruins. They search and discover a new dawn after a dark evening, and carry on with their life’s journey. o Double Standards Double standards make people directionless. And one who is directionless cannot embark on a journey of importance. To patiently accept and tolerate loss is not defeatism. It requires great courage and boldness to voluntarily accept reality.
